Great Expectations Lyrics

    [Akil]
    Uh, no doubt, it took ten years, for me to pressure cook my fears
    No my front line rhymes moving up from the rear
    My dream slash career appeared ever so clear
    Now I'm able to touch, smell, feel, speak, and hear
    My fans cheer, my time is finally here
    The past depart the present cause the future is near
    Anticipation, magnified my motivation
    Direct my energy to touch nations
    Been entertaining since niggas was really banging
    Dancning at the old folks parties, pancaking
    I've been waiting for my time to shine
    From Catholic school ?John Mid? junior high
    From ?? to rocking at the Good Life
    We paid the price to keep rhyming and rip shit on the mic
    Yo, cause if you only knew what we been through
    The struggle and the pain to maintain and continue

    Expectations, on our committee Unified relations
    We Rebel our Rhythm through tribulations
    And treble and bass the situation with dedication

    [Charli 2na]
    Yo, go get your ticket, your seats snacks and beverages
    While we get wicked all in your brain cracks and crevaces
    Servicing bulletins to you critical puritans
    Who be shouting in my vicinity doubting my capability
    (Expect) no defeat, my whole fleet be scorching
    Keep across your vision blurred from heat distortion
    The proportions better that precaution
    While we shake the portion fakes are lost in, never flossing
    (The antidote for your mood) We sloppy dope and I'm hoping
    What I wrote get you open like a Fallopian tube
    In my crew we inclube brothers who worthy
    Rebels indeed, J's from LA, I'm from Shahee
    Plus never vexed, flipping for Allah cause he blessed us
    With the talent, to make Jurassic your next guest
    Rocking since the '84 Fresh Fest, yes

    Great expectations, on our committee Unified relations
    We Rebel our Rhythm through tribulations
    And treble and bass the situation with dedication [Repeat 2x]

    [Marc 7even]
    Ayo my story starts in the NJ state
    And gets deep like a movie Bruce and Demi make
    I moved to the land of sand and ill earthquakes
    I didn't know this was the place I'd get my piece of the cake
    Or the piece of the pie, U-N-I-T-Y
    Every Thursday night at the Life we kept it tight
    That's right, that's where we dwelled and the rhythm rebelled
    We a blast from the past like the shotgun shells
    No a mocho males with raps about a beer
    (Our mission is to persevere) So haters play the rear
    We toured the stratesphere from London to the Square
    You swear you're prepared to diss what we have here
    Indeed time ticks as rapid rhymes rip
    Earth and time split in time to find it's
    Just another manic Monday, and one day
    We'll shine, too, so my crew say

    Expectations, on our committee Unified relations
    We Rebel our Rhythm through tribulations
    And treble and bass the situation with dedication

    [Zaakir]
    Yo, whether you love to hate it, if it's in or outdated
    If I've been overrated or maybe your most favorite
    You expect me still to write my verse on time
    And I expect you not to front when you hear my rhyme
    Don't expect me to smile cause it's in good taste
    I know cats that's no mistake smiling in my face
    And don't expect to try and guess if I'm mad or not
    Or if I'm cold or hot, you would know if not
    And don't expect me to come and just bite my tongue
    It's kind of hard to forget what some brothers have done
    But my mother always said you can forgive and forget
    And expect that most promises won't be kept
    I guess I gave credit where it wasn't deserved
    To brothers must have preferred to not keep their word
    The bigger the burden, the bigger the uncertain
    No expectation for my creation, great expectation
